Swiss-side are well respected wheels for 500 or so? Williams do a full carbon for under 1k?
Edelrad have some good deals too?

I presume i would get conti 4000s tyres and tubes and casette for less than 250 ?

Depends on the cassette that's coming with it.

You may find them cheaper elsewhere.

€81.52 tubes and tyres

Don't want to clutter the place up with new thread..

Picking up a new set of Campagnolo zonda's next week and wondering would it be worth my while picking up a new ultegra cassette, I'm running a 105 on my current wheels and would just swap it over, suppose I'm really asking if I notice a huge difference just changing the cassette..

Cheers.

No none. I changed from a 105 12/25 to 11/28 ultegra cassette and noticed no difference at all in smoothness, noise or anything else. I simply needed something bigger than a 25 as I live in donegal and it's all hills around me, plus the ultegra cassette was only €8 dearer so went for it over 105.

Cheers, I was thinking that but not 100% sure, I'd guess you'd need to be changing the whole group set to notice..
